I was in my car today and noticed that I can hear the rear speakers perfectly and the fronts barely at all (please don't start in right now), anyways, if I tilted my head forward and downsuddenly the front speakers came alive, and were just as loud. My front speakers were like at my feet.(I own a saturn). What I'm asking is how do you fix that in a car, since most cars have speakers low down? Is it better to have them higher up, say if I was making custom door panels eventually? What if they were in the dash?

Maybe check your h.u. adjustments...

 

sounds like ya fixed it already, stay leanig forward......

As he said also, look at the dials behind the volume and tuning dials and adjust the fading forward.

 

Thank you, I knew that already. I was asking more why are speakers always at your feet if they don't sound good down there.

 

bc its a saturn...actually...usually there is the most room down there.

 

ouch. that hurt man. Well, Saturn, Ford, or anyone, I say that's stupid. Your feet can't hear. What do they need the music for. Who knows, maybe it's therapeutic.

 

oh, They like to mount them low to help them clear the window and its motor or crank. The other advantage is that it gets the speakers a little closer to being the same distance from you. This is why kick panel locations are so popular, they are almost the same distance from the listeners ear.
